Cambodia To-do:

Let us work in the best reference and presentation of archaeological sites of Cambodia beyond Angkor like Sambor Prei Kuk, Angkor Borei (Takeo), etc.

Should disambiguate Republican Party for Democracy and Renewal and generally try to link up social conscience with right-wing values.

Asia Pacific Strategic Leadership workshop in Cambodia 6 November 2006- 10 November 2006

'Then-Now-Next; Listen-Talk-Act' was the theme of the Asia Pacific Strategic Leadership workshop that took place in Cambodia. During the five day event, participants enhanced their strategic leadership skills and learned how to be a decision-maker in their Member Organization.

The event supported the Asia Pacific Region Operational Plan in building strong and growing Member Organizations.

The Asia Pacific Strategic Leadership workshop was held at the Sunway Hotel in Phnom Penh, Cambodia from 6 to 10 November 2006.

Monday The opening ceremony was a blend of Girl Guiding/Girl Scouting and Cambodian culture.

HRH Princess Preah Reach Botrei Preah Ream Norodom Bopha Devi, the royal representative of Her Majesty the Queen Mother, graced the occasion. Foreign Embassy Officials, Governmental and Non–Governmental Organizations’ (NGOs) representatives also attended the ceremony.

The Fine Arts ballet dancers presented a welcome dance to bring blessings on the workshop and the participants.

The Royal Princess of Cambodia conveyed the Queen Mother’s appreciation to WAGGGS for making Cambodia part of the worldwide Movement and invited the participants to experience the best of the Cambodian culture.

Mde. Leang MengHo, Chief Commissioner of Girl Guide Association of Cambodia (GGAC) gave the welcome remark. In her address Dr. Cristina Lim-Yuson, Chairman of Asia Pacific Committee, explained the need to reflect and learn from each Member Organization’s best practices; to preserve the core values in the Girl Guiding/Girl Scouting Movement and for delegates to become strategic leaders. The event ended with the challenge to ‘Walk the Talk’ in Girl Guiding/Girl Scouting.

In her keynote speech, HE Ing Kantha Phavi, Minister of Women’s Affairs, stirred everyone to take a serious stand on strategic leadership. Volunteerism and the empowerment of women also featured in her address. Reflections The planning committee arranged the first day’s reflection, which was a combination of poems, stories, songs and quotations. Participants joined in reading out the reflections and all those present sang ‘Kumbayah’. The first plenary session The first plenary session of the workshop was a joint presentation by Dr. Cristina Lim-Yuson, Chairman of Asia Pacific Committee and Kar Mei Lee, regional director for Asia Pacific. Cristina and Mei talked about WAGGGS comparing the differences that have taken place especially over the last decade. The session ended with a question and answer session.

Participants had the option of attending any one of five mini-workshops: Taking volunteerism into the 21st Century (Nik Faizah Mustapha) Strategic directions of World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (Mariko Asano) Trends of Young People (Ruchira Jayasinghe) Market research (Jenny Burrow) Project and programmes of WAGGGS (Kar Mei Lee) On Monday there was another plenary session presented by June Cameron which was very active and informative. Bazaar Participants arranged their displays for sale. This was their chance to show products and items from the Member Organizations.

Part of the proceedings went to the AP Fund to promote Girl Guiding/Girl Scouting in the region while the other portion was donated to Girl Guide Association of Cambodia (GGAC).

Girl Guides Help Young Women Participate Fully in Cambodian Society Phnom Penh, Cambodia August 17, 2006

PAO Jeff Daigle greets a workshop participant in the "Girl Guide way". Full Size The Girl Guides Association of Cambodia (GGAC) recently completed its project entitled "Education on the Right to Live in Peace through Girl Guiding Activities," supported by a $15,000 small grant from the U.S. Embassy. Embassy Public Affairs Officer (PAO) Jeff Daigle was on hand for the project's closing ceremony and assisted in awarding certificates to young women who had participated in the program's final training session. In his remarks, the PAO told the assembled Girl Guides, "You are tomorrow’s doctors, engineers, government officials, and business leaders. Perhaps one of you is a future Prime Minister. There is nothing that you cannot do." But he went on to say, "As future leaders of Cambodia, however, you must take responsibility for creating a better society for yourself, your neighbors, and for your children. Only through self-reliance, hard work, and trust in your fellow citizen, can you create a new Cambodia."

This program trained girls and young women from Phnom Penh and five rural provinces of Cambodia in the areas of negotiation, communication, listening, and conflict management to increase their capacity to deal with aggressiveness and to practice active non-violence. The trainees have now returned to their communities and are modeling and teaching these techniques to their peers. The ultimate goal of the project is to foster respect for the rights of women by instilling the principles of mutual respect and democratic processes among girls and young women at their earliest age.

GGAC is a voluntary non-formal education movement open to all girls and young women in Cambodia, regardless of differences in nationality, religions and/or social standing. GGAC is a locally registered organization affiliated with World Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGGS), the largest international voluntary organization for girls and young women, with more than 10 million members in 144 countries. On June 9, 2002 GGAC was elected to become an associate member the WAGGGS at the 31st World Conference of WAGGGS held in Manila. The Girl Guide movement was first introduced to Cambodia during the French Protectorate, but activities were interrupted by war. In 1994, London-based WAGGGS proposed reactivation of the movement. Ms. Leang Meng Ho, a former Girl Guide, who was at that time co-founder and Deputy Director of the Cambodian Institute of Human Rights, initiated the move for the re-organization of the Association. In 1998 the first National Executive Committee was formed, comprised of prominent female leaders from Cambodian society, after a Course on Guiding Administration in Bangkok conducted with support from the WAGGGS's Lend a Hand Project. In 1999, Her Majesty the Queen of Cambodia graciously assented to become the Patron of the Movement. In 2003 and 2004, GGAC received funding under the auspices of the State Department Democracy Commission Grants in order to conduct training projects that developed the skills and self-esteem of Cambodia’s young women. Over the past four years, the U.S. Embassy has provided nearly $75,000 to GGAC to support its work in fostering the development of Cambodia’s young girls and women.
